    TIBCO provides non-GAAP measures for operating income, net income and net income per share data as supplemental information regarding TIBCO's business performance. TIBCO believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they exclude non-operating charges. TIBCO's management excludes these non-operating charges when it internally evaluates the performance of TIBCO's business and makes operating decisions, including internal budgeting, performance measurement and the calculation of bonuses and discretionary compensation, because these measures provide a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. Moreover, management believes these non- GAAP measures reflect the essential revenue generation activities of TIBCO. Accordingly, management excludes gains and losses on equity investments, costs related to formal restructuring plans, stock-based compensation related to employee stock options, the amortization of acquired intangible assets and charges for acquired in-process research and development, and the income tax effects of the foregoing, as well as adjustments for the impact of changes in the valuation allowance recorded against TIBCO's deferred tax assets when making operational decisions.

    TIBCO believes that providing the non-GAAP measures that management uses to its investors is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measures provide a consistent basis for investors to understand TIBCO's financial performance on a trended basis across historical periods. In addition, it allows investors to evaluate TIBCO's performance using the same methodology and information as that used by TIBCO's management.

    Non-GAAP measures are subject to material limitations as these measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and thus TIBCO's definition may be different from similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies and/or analysts. However, TIBCO's management compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the items excluded in the calculation of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. In addition, some items such as restructuring charges that are excluded from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share can have a material impact on cash flows and stock compensation charges can have a significant impact on earnings. Management compensates for these limitations by evaluating the non-GAAP measure together with the most directly comparable GAAP measure. TIBCO has historically provided non-GAAP measures to the investment community as a supplement to its GAAP results, to enable investors to evaluate TIBCO's business performance in the way that management does.

    The non-GAAP adjustments, and the basis for excluding them, are outlined below:

    Stock-based Compensation

    TIBCO incurs stock-based compensation expense under SFAS 123(R). TIBCO excludes this item for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share because it is a non-cash expense that TIBCO believes is not reflective of its business performance. The nature of the stock-based compensation expense also makes it very difficult to estimate prospectively, since the expense will vary with changes in the stock price and market conditions at the time of new grants, varying valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and different award types, making the comparison of current results with forward-looking guidance potentially difficult for investors to interpret. The tax effects of stock-based compensation expenses may also vary significantly from period to period, without any change in underlying operational performance, thereby obscuring the underlying profitability of operations relative to prior periods (including prior periods following the adoption of SFAS 123(R)). The exclusion of stock-based compensation from the non-GAAP measures also allows a consistent comparison of TIBCO's relative historical financial performance, since the method for accounting for stock-based compensation changed at the beginning of fiscal 2006 when TIBCO adopted SFAS 123(R). Finally, TIBCO believes that non-GAAP measures of profitability that exclude stock-based compensation are widely used by analysts and investors in the software industry.

    Amortization of Intangible Assets

    TIBCO has incurred amortization of intangible assets, included in its GAAP financial statements, related to various acquisitions TIBCO has made. Management excludes these items, for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. TIBCO believes that eliminating this expense from its non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because the amortization of intangible assets can be inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of TIBCO's acquisition transactions, which also vary substantially in frequency from period to period.

    The following table is a reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, respectively.

    Americans Conducted Nearly 7 Million Searches for the Apple iPhone in April, According to comScore MarketerGoogle Delivers Disproportionate Number of iPhone-Related Search Clicks

    RESTON, Va., June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- comScore, Inc. , a leader in measuring the digital world, today released a study on "iPhone"-related search terms based on data from the comScore Marketer service, which showed that 1.3 million people conducted 6.9 million searches for iPhone-related terms in April 2008.

    (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080115/COMSCORELOGO)

    "Speculation had been rampant in recent months that Apple CEO Steve Jobs was getting ready to introduce a 3G iPhone at Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference on June 9, and indeed he did just that," said Dan Lackner, comScore Senior VP. "Search is frequently a harbinger of purchase intent. The increase in volume of iPhone searches demonstrates just how heavy that interest has been for the next generation of Apple's popular phone -- even when its existence was still just a rumor."

    Consumers have searched on a variety of iPhone-related topics, but the most common search term, "iPhone," generated nearly 1.5 million searches. Also ranking high on the list were several terms relating to the anticipated next generation iPhone, including "iPhone update" (151,000), "iPhone 2.0" (75,000) and "iPhone 3G" (60,000).

    Of the iPhone-related searches that generated click-thrus, the vast majority (88.4 percent) occurred on Google search, 33 percent higher than one would expect given Google's share of total Internet search click-thrus. All other search engines generated a lower percentage of iPhone-related clicks than their respective shares of total search clicks.

    "This is a prime example of the importance of using consumer behavioral data when designing and evaluating search marketing campaigns," added Mr. Lackner. "We've seen many times that different search engines perform better for particular brands and products, and in this case, Google appears to be the preferred choice for iPhone searchers."

    Paid vs. Organic iPhone Click-Thrus

    Not surprisingly, the top destination for iPhone-related searches was Apple Inc., which attracted 17.5 percent of all search click-thrus. Of those click-thrus to Apple Inc., 16.5 percent were the result of paid search and the remaining 83.5 percent were from organic search results. Google Sites, which host significant iPhone-related content on YouTube and Blogger sites, ranked second with 8.8 percent of iPhone-related click-thrus, nearly all of which came from organic search results. NetShelter Technology Media, which owns several Apple and iPhone-specific content sites, ranked third with 8.4 percent.

    Among the top ten destinations, AT&T, Inc. -- the lone cell phone carrier for iPhones in the U.S. -- had the highest proportion of their search clicks coming from paid links (42.8 percent). Several of the top ten sites had no paid search strategy, but still managed to generate a substantial share of total clicks through organic results.

    AtomFilms Relaunches as Atom.com, Allies With COMEDY CENTRALOnline Video Pioneer Debuts Comedy Website, Four Original Series and Expanded Advertising ModelsMulti-Platform Distribution Includes "Atom TV," a New Late Night TV Series on COMEDY CENTRALCOMEDY CENTRAL Signs On-Air Development Deal for Atom.com Original "Border Patrol"

    NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Viacom's MTVN Entertainment Group today announced the launch of Atom.com, a digital comedy network that distributes original programming across the Internet, handheld devices, gaming platforms, mobile phones, television and other gadgets still to be invented. Atom.com offers a cornucopia of professionally produced comedy and provides indie and UGC creators with a clear path to "go pro" themselves -- earning infamy, money and a direct path to exposure and future development opportunities on the Web, television and beyond.

    With the launch, Atom.com becomes COMEDY CENTRAL's exclusive partner and anchor brand for original digital comedy content, developing new properties for multiplatform distribution, building an online community of creators and viewers, and producing a half-hour TV series, "Atom TV," that debuted on COMEDY CENTRAL this week.

    "We want Atom.com to provoke, break rules and uncover talent much as COMEDY CENTRAL did at its inception on cable," said Erik Flannigan, EVP, digital media, MTVN Entertainment Group. "If we get this right, Atom.com will be our punk-rock label and help to bring fresh, provocative comedy to every screen our audience is watching."

    "Atom delivers Web comedy the way nature intended -- random, timely and out-of-touch with normal standards of good taste," said Scott Roesch, general manager, Atom.com. "We couldn't ask for a better partner than COMEDY CENTRAL as we begin this quest for comedy talent, convergent sponsorship sales, multiplatform distribution and, of course, global domination."

    Original Digital Comedy Programming

    Atom.com's programming lineup features daily new releases of original comedy including animation, live-action narrative, topical videos, sketch comedies and spoofs. The site also offers a library of thousands of comedy productions previously developed by, licensed by and uploaded to AtomFilms and COMEDY CENTRAL.

    At launch, Atom.com is premiering four new Web series including:

    -- "Border Patrol," produced by Josh Greenbaum, Ben McMillan and comedy legend Ivan Reitman ("Old School," "Ghostbusters"), centers on three slacker friends who spend their weekends in lawn chairs at the Mexican border determined to stop illegal immigration. Demonstrating Atom's direct pipeline

    to COMEDY CENTRAL, "Border Patrol" is the first Atom Original to sign a Webisode-to-episode on-air development deal with the network.

    -- "Steven & Stephen," from "Adult Swim" stars Tim Heidecker & Eric Wareheim ("Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!"), about two groin-conjoined, Internet-obsessed twins.

    -- "Stickman Exodus," from Waverly Films, in which stick figures, doodled into existence by a bored high-school student, search for the "promised page" in the kid's notebook.

    -- "Benny, Escaped Convict," co-created by television writer Ryan Levin ("Scrubs") and award-winning animator Nye Warburton, chronicles the exploits of a foulmouthed rodent on the lam.

    Atom.com is also in production on dozens more original properties that will debut in coming months, including: "My Best Friend Is My Penis," starring Jon Togo ("CSI Miami"); topical pop culture videos from a stable of creators including Blame Society Productions ("Chad Vader"); the gaming parody "Legend of Neil" and the urban legend comedy series "Never Do This."

    Atom.com -- Where Funny Videos Go Pro

    The new Atom.com Web site will replace both AtomFilms.com (a 2008 Webby Award finalist) and AtomUploads.com, bringing professionally produced titles and amateur comedy content together on one site. Visitors will find an entirely new Website design and thousands of videos, animations and Flash games. Each title is classified in one of two states: "Pro Videos" (developed or licensed by Atom) and "User Videos" (content uploaded to Atom). To provide a direct path for User Videos to go Pro, Atom has expanded its "Upload Showdown" competition. Each week, the audience watches and votes on top new User Videos, determining which should join the ranks of Atom's Pro Videos, earning not only site promotion but a distribution and licensing contract offer with additional royalty payments via Atom's revenue sharing program and carriage across Atom's distribution channels including "Atom TV" on COMEDY CENTRAL.

    The site's other new features include a streamlined UGC upload system, social networking profiles and content-sharing features powered by MTVN's Flux network, higher-quality video streaming and a Creator's Kit featuring dozens of royalty-free music beds, including contributions from "Juno" composer Matt Messina.

    A Next-Gen Advertising Model

    The COMEDY CENTRAL alliance and a suite of new features will allow the MTVN Entertainment Group to offer Atom.com as a unique value proposition to advertisers and sponsors. The new Atom features diverse video advertising opportunities including non-interruptive overlay ads, deeply branded UGC competitions, and multiplatform buys that extend across Atom.com, Atom TV and beyond.

    Leveraging its capabilities and relationships in original content development, Atom will also offer end-to-end branded-entertainment programs for advertisers that want to be part of the entertainment experience itself. For example, "Agency," currently in development, offers sponsors product integration central to the storyline, chronicling the efforts of a fictitious small-town ad agency as they fumble their way to build an actual advertising campaign for a real client.

    Atom on Every Screen

    The digital comedy network based at Atom.com extends far beyond the Web site, reaching almost every screen that plays video. On television, "Atom TV" (TV-MA) features top Atom titles (including "Upload Showdown" winners) on COMEDY CENTRAL every Monday night at 2:00 a.m. Atom content also appears periodically on Spike TV and Logo. On mobile phones, Atom has prominent channels on Verizon Wireless' V CAST as well as AT&T's CV and AllTel. Via the Internet, Atom is featured on iTunes, AOL, AT&T, Bebo, Dailymotion, Veoh, xBox Live and many more leading web destinations. All of these partnerships not only give consumers easy access to Atom content, but drive additional exposure and revenue for creators in Atom's revenue sharing program.

    "There is a lot of hilarious stuff in the Atom pipeline and the new Atom.com online community is off to a great start," said Flannigan. Tapping Comedy Central's halo for advertising and promotion along with our multi-platform strategy make us far less reliant on one-off viral 'hits' to sustain and grow the business. Our diversified marketing and distribution offers a deeper reach into our core demographic: post-viral, twenty-something guys who live online."

    Study Reveals Greatest Barrier to Green Supply Chain InitiativesCompanies Strive to Measure ROI, Balance Business Benefits with Environmental Responsibility

    FALLS CHURCH, Va., and ATLANTA, June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Companies striving to "green" their supply chains are most constrained by the inability to justify cost of implementation, according to "The Green Supply Chain Study," a new survey jointly conducted by CSC , Manhattan Associates Inc. , IBM and Supply Chain Management Review magazine. The study focuses on the most important environmental issues faced by supply chain professionals; outlines the supply chain green initiatives currently implemented or planned in manufacturing, warehousing and distribution; gauges the level of green collaboration with extended supply chain partners; and highlights the greatest challenges for implementing sustainable business practices.

    The survey revealed that 78 percent of the 250 supply chain executives who responded are either currently implementing or evaluating sustainable supply chain initiatives. Of those evaluating, close to two-thirds report the greatest barriers their organizations face with regard to establishing these business practices is cost justification. Of those currently implementing a program, 40 percent have not established a method to measure return on investment.

    "CSC helped conduct this study to give supply chain executives a view into what strategic green supply chain initiatives are being implemented or planned by their peers and to help them better understand the impact of their efforts," said Brad Barton, a partner and managing director in CSC's Global Business Solutions group. "The results speak for themselves. Companies clearly need an effective method to identify and quantify high-impact areas throughout their supply chain and ensure their investments are green -- especially in cases where these efforts also drive improved profitability."

    According to the survey, more than 50 percent of the respondents said they have a documented plan at the corporate level, and about the same number said their company has a senior executive, often a vice president, dedicated to this effort. Nearly two-thirds said waste disposal and recycling were the most important environmental issues to address.

    "This study reveals the importance that companies place on reducing environmental impact by executing strategies that optimize efficiency in their supply chain processes," said Eddie Capel, executive vice president, Product Management and Customer Support, for Manhattan Associates.

    Many of the supply chain and logistics executives surveyed are involved in at least one sustainability-related group. The study indicates that more than a third are involved in the EPA's SmartWay Transport program, and one-quarter of respondents report that their organizations are actively involved in the Green Suppliers Network and/or Carbon Disclosure Project.

    The survey was sent to print and e-mail readers of Logistics Management and Supply Chain Management Review magazines in February 2008, and to CSC and Manhattan Associates clients and prospects. All respondents are involved in corporate policy-making for supply chain strategy planning and initiatives.

    There's no Time Like the Present for Today's Girls, According to The N's New Research Study 'The Story of Girl'

    NEW YORK, June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Today's millennial girls (ages 13-24) say they have more opportunities than prior generations of women ever had, but feel stressed about having to "do it all." This is according to The N's new research study, "The Story of Girl," which assesses the state of the millennial girl. Key findings indicate that these young girls are happy and optimistic, but worry more than their male peers about school, money, their future and their appearance, respectively. They also say they are growing up without role models outside of their own personal lives: millennial girls say they are not looking to Hollywood celebrities as influencers, for instance, but instead rely on themselves or their mothers as primary role models. Additionally, this generation is extremely tech-savvy -- splitting their time among at least two-dozen tech-related activities everyday. The N, available in 64 million U.S. homes, is Nickelodeon's 24-hour basic cable network exclusively for and about teens.

    "Today's millennial girls say they are growing up in a world with boundless opportunities," said Ron Geraci, Senior Vice President of Research and Planning for Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. "The young women of this generation are more self-assured and more tech-savvy than ever, but stress is also becoming one of their hallmarks because they feel they have so much to accomplish. They are shifting the definition of success from having it all to doing it all."

    "The Story of Girl" research conveys insights from females 13-24 years-of-age and includes qualitative discussions and national representative quantitative surveys. The study was fielded from winter 2007 until April 2008.*

    Highlights from the study include: Belief in Equal Opportunity, but Know There's Room to Grow

    Research findings indicate that girls 13-24 believe that traditional roles have changed and there are more opportunities for them today than past generations, but there is still room to grow.

    -- 86% of girls say they have prior generations of women to thank for all the opportunities they have now. -- 59% of girls believe they are smarter than their male counterparts and more than four out of ten girls (43%) believe they will earn more money than their spouse. -- While 34% of females 13-24 believe that women have achieved equality with men, 85% still believe a double standard exists and 84% believe women are still discriminated against in the workplace. -- Girls surveyed say it's easier for males to become CEO (62%), get promoted (45%), have a good job (28%) and have it all (23%). Overall, It's Good to be a Girl -- 72% of girls believe there has never been a better time to be a female. -- 29% of girls believe that because there are more opportunities for women today like owning their own businesses or getting a good education. -- 16% feel it's due to greater freedom and independence than the generations before them. -- 60% of girls describe themselves as happy. -- Girls define success broadly -- basing it mostly on how happy they are, if they have a job they love or if they have a good balance of work and personal life. Stressed Out with So Much To Do!

    Millennial girls today feel stress, more so than their male counterparts, from the desire to "do it all."

    -- 43% of girls describe themselves as stressed out, as opposed to only 19% of guys; and 75% often feel overwhelmed by everything they do. Girls say they stress about everything, including: school (72%); the future (72%); money (71%); homework (70%); and their appearance (61%). -- Girls stress the most (48%) between 17- and 18-years-old, as they are about to enter college or as the reality of financial responsibilities takes hold. Whom to Look Up to

    Teen girls today say they are growing up without clear role models outside of their personal lives, so tend to look inward and to their parents as role models or to their mothers.

    -- More than one third (34%) of girls look up to themselves or do not have a role model at all. -- One quarter (25%) of girls look up to there moms as their primary role models. -- Only 6% of girls said a famous athlete, musician or singer, actress or actor, author or writer is their role model. Full Tech Immersion

    Qualitative research shows that television is primarily used among millennial girls but in their day-to-day lives, they are positively immersed in technology. They identify at least two dozen technology-centric activities they engage in every week, including:

    -- Watching television; -- Surfing the net; -- Listening to music; -- Watching DVDS; -- Blogging; -- Shopping online; -- and reading newspapers and magazines. About The N

    The N, the 24-hour TV network exclusively for and about teens, is currently available in 64 million households via cable, digital cable and satellite, as well on mobile, VOD and broadband. The N's distinct perspective connects its audience to the electricity and possibilities of teendom, anytime and anywhere, with original series and ever-popular favorites.

    Terminal High Altitude Area Defense Radar Successful in Missile Defense Test at Pacific Range

    TEWKSBURY, Mass., June 26, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) radar built by Raytheon Company performed successfully in the latest integrated flight test conducted by the Missile Defense Agency and THAAD prime contractor, Lockheed Martin , at the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Hawaii June 25.

    The test marked a significant "first" for the THAAD program: the intercept of a "mid-endoatmospheric" (inside Earth's atmosphere), separating target over the Pacific Ocean. The THAAD radar played a critical role in discriminating the lethal object within the threat complex, leading to the subsequent successful intercept of the lethal object. The test demonstrated fully integrated radar, launcher, fire control, missile, and engagement functions of the THAAD weapon system.

    "This latest test of THAAD's missile defense capability is the most challenging thus far, and once again, Raytheon's components have performed exceptionally," said Pete Franklin, vice president, National & Theater Security Programs for Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems. "The success underscores THAAD's ability to meet the missile defense mission and provide a reliable and affordable terminal missile defense capability for our nation."

    The THAAD radar, also known as the AN/TPY-2, achieved all test objectives: acquiring the target complex, discriminating the lethal object, providing track and discrimination data to the fire control and communicating with the in-flight THAAD interceptor. The fire control software, jointly developed by Raytheon and THAAD prime contractor Lockheed Martin, also performed successfully, engaging the target complex and initializing the launch sequence.

    McGraw-Hill Higher Education and MaxKnowledge Join Forces to Enhance Online Course Training for Career College Management and Faculty

    NEW YORK, June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Just as online courses provide a different experience for students, catering to and teaching those students requires a different approach for staff, management, and faculty. Specifically, different methods for communicating with or assessing students outside of the traditional classroom must be considered. To address the growing industry need for training in this new online education environment, McGraw-Hill Higher Education today announced a strategic alliance to combine its expertise in online learning content and technology with the career college online training expert, MaxKnowledge.

    "Quality online instruction is an integral part of today's university system, and it is extremely important to prepare online school operators with the right knowledge and skills necessary to launch and successfully execute an online program," said Jeff Schultz, vice president, Learning Solutions, McGraw-Hill Higher Education. "This alliance with MaxKnowledge is an important next step in our online learning offerings, and we are pleased to continue our commitment to the success of career colleges -- faculty, school owners and students alike."

    The agreement with MaxKnowledge is an important next step for McGraw-Hill Higher Education. The alliance -- along with McGraw-Hill's 2006 agreement with Embanet, a provider of online services and technologies that maximize an institution's return on investment -- enables McGraw-Hill and its partners to provide a comprehensive content, technology and training solution for career colleges seeking affordable ways to offer online courses.

    Global Med Technologies(R), Inc. Completes Acquisition of Inlog, SA, a Leading European Medical Software FirmParticular Interest in Inlog's Cellular Therapy Product Shown by U.S. Institutions

    DENVER, June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Global Med Technologies(R), Inc. ("Global Med" or the "Company") (BULLETIN BOARD: GLOB) , an international e-Health, medical information technology company, today announced the completed acquisition of Inlog, SA, and its German and related subsidiary ("Inlog"), a private European medical software firm, for a maximum of $11.5 million in a combination of cash, stock and earnout. The structure of this transaction is expected to be accretive, exclusive of financing costs, in the first full year of operations. Inlog's management is planning to stay with the Company.

    (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20040226/GLOBALMEDLOGO)

    Inlog, based in Lyon, France, with additional operations in Grenoble, France, and Munich and Alzey, Germany, is a leading European provider of donor center and transfusion information management systems as well as laboratory information systems and other ancillary medical software systems. Inlog currently maintains 700 sites in 15 countries.

    Inlog's shareholders must use $500,000 of the cash proceeds to purchase Global Med common stock in the open market within three months of the closing. Inlog's unaudited revenues for their fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 were approximately euro 7.0 million* or about $12.4 million at current exchange rates, with EBITDA of approximately euro 940,000* or approximately $1.45 million. Inlog's unaudited revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 were approximately euro 6.6 million or about $10.2 million at current exchange rates, with EBITDA of approximately euro 780,000 or approximately $1.2 million. Global Med will utilize a combination of existing cash and debt to pay for the transaction.

    Chairman and CEO of Global Med Technologies, Inc., Michael I. Ruxin, M.D., stated, "The acquisition of Inlog by Global Med is a transforming event in the history of our Company. As a leading provider of blood and laboratory software applications in 20 countries (in the U.S., Canada, Caribbean, European Union, Africa, French Polynesia, and New Caledonia) we are now poised to grow our Company in the global marketplace and react quickly to a rapidly changing international market." Dr. Ruxin continued, "The accretive nature of the transaction will also further strengthen Global Med's financial position and propel the Company to develop more next-generation medical software solutions." Dr. Ruxin further stated, "With the combination of Global Med and Inlog, we know of no other company, domestic or international, that brings the breadth and depth of blood-related software applications to the world market. Our new international suite of software products contains eleven applications that will permit us to grow our global presence."

    Interest has been generated on both sides of the Atlantic for products from Inlog and Global Med's U.S.-based division, Wyndgate Technologies. Particular notice has been shown by U.S. institutions for Inlog's EdgeCell software, a Cellular Therapy application for tissue banks, stem cell centers and cord blood centers. EdgeCell has received the European designation, NF/ISO 25051/12119 certification, assuring the highest level of quality regarding the design, the testing and validation of the software, the documentation quality and the quality of support and maintenance.

    Inlog's product line also includes EdgeBlood** (also known as CTS Serveur, for the donor center marketplace), EdgeTrack** (for the hospital transfusion marketplace), EdgeLab (Laboratory Information System "LIS"), and SAPA (supports regulatory compliance and document management). Inlog is ISO 9001:2000 certified and these products have also received the NF/ISO 25051/12119 certification.

    Inlog has a substantial blood center and transfusion market share in France, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Switzerland and installations in Greece and Monaco. In Africa, Inlog supplies its blood center and transfusion systems to the National Blood Services of Gabon, Burkina Faso and Senegal, as well as having installations in Algeria, the Ivory Coast and Rwanda. Inlog's EdgeLab, with 130 laboratory sites in France, is gaining market share in Germany, Spain, Belgium, the Middle East and Asia. There are no current plans to bring EdgeLab into the U.S.

    Thomas F. Marcinek, the Company's President and COO, stated, "We are excited to have Inlog join the Global Med group of companies. As Inlog has significantly grown their market share, this acquisition doubles our customer base. Inlog's experience in handling international implementations and their cutting edge software solutions complement our current offerings and expand Global Med's market presence. Furthermore, EdgeCell, Inlog's successful cellular therapy software, will fulfill an immediate need for our customers in the U.S. market." Mr. Marcinek added, "We have respect and admiration for the Inlog management and staff and their attention to customer service. The synergistic value of bringing two strong organizations together will result in innovative solutions and continued dynamic growth."

    Renaud Blanc-Bernard of Inlog commented, "On behalf of Inlog, we are all very pleased to join forces with Global Med. Becoming an international group of almost 200 people, present in 20 countries and maintaining 1,400 transfusion centers, blood banks and laboratories, we're developing our human, commercial and technical strengths while providing the capacity to handle large national implementations anywhere in the world." Mr. Blanc-Bernard further stated, "With the synergies between our two companies, we have now more than doubled the development capabilities of Global Med and are already seeing increased interest in our collective systems in the international marketplace. Our inaugural joint marketing efforts at the ISBT international conference in Macao, China were well received. We were also quite pleased at the interest shown in our products during a recent conference in the United States and we recognize the strategic advantages in providing an enhanced product line to customers."

    RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cyberlux Corporation (BULLETIN BOARD: CYBL) announced today that the Company posted record revenues of $137,284 for the week ending June 20, 2008. The Company produced and shipped BrightEye Dual Lighthead System orders in record time for immediate deployment to Iraq with National Guard units from New York, Indiana and Minnesota. In addition, the Company verified that its production and distribution processes will support the output needed to fulfill the United States Air Force production requirements.

    Over the last year, Cyberlux has supplied BrightEye systems to state-level National Guard and Air National Guard units, generating $650,000 in revenue thus far in 2008. The National Guard and Air National Guard revenue is incremental to the 2008 Department of Defense Appropriations legislation that allocates $8.0 million for the equipping of the United States Air Force with Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems.

    "We are excited to achieve this new revenue milestone as we scale the Company's operations to meet the growing demand for our Portable Illumination Systems within the U.S. Armed Services, including the National Guard and Air National Guard. As the use of our BrightEye systems continues to expand across the state-level National Guard and Air National Guard units, our position as the leading provider of portable solid-state LED lighting solutions is solidified," said Mark Schmidt, president and chief operating officer for Cyberlux. "Satisfying these orders is the next step in deploying our BrightEye tactical lighting solutions within the National and Air National Guard's operations, but this is truly just the beginning of a longer-term lighting technology transition from incandescent-based lighting to solid-state LED lighting within the U.S. Armed Services. With the fulfillment of these initial BrightEye system orders, there are still more than 40 additional states that have requirements for light-weight, rapidly deployable lighting systems."

    The Cyberlux Portable Illumination System products are designed as visible and night-vision compatible illumination systems for general mission tactical lighting, force protection, maintenance lighting, expeditionary base protection, disaster first responders, and other rapidly deployable high-intensity lighting applications. Using advanced optics, advanced solid-state lighting technology and light-weight Li-On battery power, all contained in an easily transportable wheeled case, the Cyberlux tactical lighting systems are capable of eliminating the space-consuming bulk, noise and energy consumption of the current generator-powered incandescent lighting systems. Unique to the marketplace, the Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems provides both white and night-vision compatible covert lighting, a capability not available in traditional lighting systems.

    The Cyberlux Portable Illumination System products are available through the General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule 56 for Specialty Lighting products under Cyberlux GSA Contract GS-07F-9409S. In addition, Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems have National Stocking Number designations which make these products available to all purchasing organizations within the U.S. government as well as the global military community.

    SALT LAKE CITY, June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cimetrix, Incorporated (BULLETIN BOARD: CMXX) , a leading provider of factory automation software and solutions to the global semiconductor and electronics industries, has begun providing the RaP Reference Implementation (RRI) to all members of the semiconductor industry on the Cimetrix website. Similar to the Equipment Client Connection Emulator (ECCE), currently available on the Cimetrix site, RRI provides a reference artifact to guide the industry, ensuring accuracy and interoperability of RaP implementations. The RRI tool can emulate a RaP-enabled equipment, a factory system, and/or an off-tool editor.

    Recipe and Parameter Management (RaP) is a new equipment capability that enables advanced factory recipe management systems (RMS) and supports critical enhancements for handling, processing, and managing recipes. The Equipment Engineering Capabilities (EEC) Guidebook, a collaboration between International SEMATECH Manufacturing Initiative (ISMI) and Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA/Selete), identified recipe management as a key area for improving equipment operations and defined SEMI 139 (RaP). To benefit its member companies, ISMI initiated the RRI project, partnering with Alan Weber & Associates (AWA) to deliver a "reference implementation" for the SEMI E139 standard. AWA developed the solution utilizing Cimetrix connectivity technology which is used in all 300mm semiconductor fabrication facilities.

    RRI will be available exclusively on the Cimetrix website and will be free to approved members of the semiconductor industry during the remainder of 2008. Members can submit a request for the RRI tool via the ISMI website. Once approved, the user will be provided information for downloading the solution on the Cimetrix website.

    "The RRI tool is a good example of ISMI guiding the industry toward operational excellence with collaboration and support from industry leaders such as AWA and Cimetrix," states Dave Faulkner, executive vice president of sales & marketing for Cimetrix. "Cimetrix works closely with ISMI and SEMI to provide the latest productivity tools for the semiconductor manufacturing industry."

    More TV Choice and Competition Near for Residents of Stow, Mass.Town Approves Video License for Verizon; Thousands More Households Soon Can Get FiOS TV

    STOW, Mass., June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Residents of Stow are a major step closer to having another choice for their cable television services, thanks to a newly approved agreement authorizing Verizon to offer its FiOS TV service via the most advanced all-digital, fiber-optic network straight to customers' homes.

    The Board of Selectmen in Stow, granted a cable franchise to Verizon Tuesday (June 24), paving the way for video choice for thousands more Massachusetts households.

    The board's vote brings to 75 the total number of Massachusetts communities where Verizon's FiOS TV is or will soon be available.

    "We are thrilled to be able to bring FiOS TV to residents in Stow," said Donna Cupelo, Verizon region president for Massachusetts and Rhode Island. "Since the launch of FiOS TV in Massachusetts last year, we are continuing our efforts to meet the consumer demand for cable TV choice."

    FiOS TV is the company's new fiber-optic television service, which offers a better-quality picture, more high-definition and on-demand programs, and more reliable service at competitive prices.

    Verizon currently offers FiOS TV in 72 Massachusetts communities [see list below] as well as other locations in New York, New Jersey, California, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Rhode Island, Texas and Virginia.

    "As a result of this new franchise, consumers in Stow will be able to choose their cable provider as easily as they choose their phone company," said Cupelo. "Competition drives innovation, value and service quality, and it puts the consumer in control."

    Verizon is currently in negotiations with several other communities in Massachusetts to obtain additional franchises. For more information on the Verizon franchise process in the state, log on to http://www.verizon.com/ma.

    Verizon research indicates 87 percent of Massachusetts residents favor more competition and choice for video services. Independent studies have shown that competition in the video market brings enormous benefits to consumers in the form of reduced prices, better packages and improved service.

    The Stow franchise agreement contains provisions for the network's future growth; financial support and capacity for educational and government access channels; cable service to government buildings; and other important benefits to the town, including insurance, indemnification and enforcement protections.

    "Verizon will compete aggressively for subscribers in Stow with our FiOS services, which are fueled by our lightning-fast fiber-optic network," Cupelo said. Verizon soon will begin its door-to-door sales campaign in Stow, explaining to local consumers the many advantages of FiOS TV.

    Verizon is the first company to offer a fiber-to-the premises (FTTP) network, connecting homes and businesses directly to fiber optics on a widespread scale.

    FiOS TV offers a broad collection of all-digital programming, 30 high-definition channels, thousands of video-on-demand titles and more. Fiber delivers amazingly sharp pictures and sound, and has the capacity to transmit a wide array of high-definition programming that is so clear and intense it seems to leap from the TV screen.

    In addition to FiOS TV, Verizon's fiber network also allows the company to offer consumers and businesses high-speed FiOS Internet service at download speeds up to 50 Mbps (megabits per second) and upload speeds up to 20 Mbps.*

    * NOTE: actual (throughput) speeds will vary.

    [FiOS TV is available in Abington, Acton, Andover, Arlington, Bedford, Belmont, Boxborough, Boxford, Braintree, Burlington, Canton, Dedham, Dunstable, Framingham, Franklin, Georgetown, Hamilton, Hingham, Holliston, Hopkinton, Ipswich, Lakeville, Lawrence, Lincoln, Littleton, Lexington, Lynn, Lynnfield, Malden, Marion, Marlborough, Marshfield, Mattapoisett, Medfield, Medway, Melrose, Methuen, Middleborough, Nahant, Natick, Needham, Newton, Norfolk, North Andover, North Reading, Norwood, Reading, Rochester, Rockland, Rowley, Sherborn, Southborough, Stoneham, Sudbury, Swampscott, Taunton, Tewksbury, Topsfield, Tyngsborough, Wakefield, Walpole, Waltham, Wareham, Wayland, Wellesley, Wenham, West Newbury, Westborough, Westwood, Wilmington, Winchester and Woburn. The company also holds TV franchises in Ashland and Plymouth, Mass.]

    Morlex Announces Failure to Comply with Eligibility Rule

    SAN DIEGO, June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Morlex, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: MORX) , a leading innovator in direct-to-consumer internet marketing announced that it is non-compliant with NASD Rule 6530 (the "Eligibility Rule") as a result of the failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008 (the "March 31, 2008 10-Q").

    As a result of the Company's non-compliance with the Eligibility Rule by the close of business on June 20, 2008, the Company expects that its common stock will be removed from the over-the-counter bulletin board (the "OTCBB").

    The reason the Company was unable to comply with the Eligibility Rule is due to the complex accounting issues involved in accounting for the Company's acquisitions of RightSide Holdings, Inc., Duncan Media Group, inc. and All Ad Acquisition, Inc. on February 14, 2008 (the "Acquisitions") and certain related financial statements dating back to 2006. The Company's current auditing firm has advised the Company that, due to the complexity of issues and a change in accounting firms, further work is required to complete the audit of the financial statements of the companies included in the Acquisitions. Such companies have previously been audited by a different accounting firm, and the current accounting firm is not relying on the existing audited financials. As a result, Morlex has been unable to timely amend its current report on Form 8-K filed on February 14, 2008 to supplement the financial statements included therein with the December 31, 2007 audited financial statements for the companies included in the Acquisitions, or to complete the related work on the financial statement to be included in the March 31, 2008 10-Q. The Company intends to re-list on the OTCBB as soon as it is able to achieve ongoing compliance with the Eligibility Rule.

    Jason Kulpa, CEO of Morlex, commented that, "We are disappointed that we have not been able to timely file our Form 10-Q for the March 31, 2008 quarter, and the amended 8K related to the Acquisitions, but we want to stress that our business is fundamentally solid. Over the last two quarters we were busy completing acquisitions, but the businesses that we acquired offer tremendous synergies and operating leverage to our Company, and we look forward to demonstrating that through our financial results. We are confident that we are building a differentiated online media publishing and advertising company that is better positioned than ever before for growth."
